DIY - Drill Storage Shelf

Cleaning and organizing the garage last week made me go and build this small shelf to store all those drills/ drivers that were wandering around the house.

I love that it didn't cost a penny. If you're a wood worker, you can get the four pieces you need for this project, from the scrap pile as I did.

I picked the first board I thought might fit all those drills, no measuring, no cutting at all. The point is, you can adjust those measurements to your own needs or material. That's the beauty about DIY'ing.

However, I'm giving you the measurements of the drill storage shelf I made, so you can relate, or maybe you want to build the same:

And this is how it all went for me:

Once I found the piece of wood for the shelf, I placed the drills on it, trying to figure out how much space to leave in between them.

Then, yeah, I took some measurements.

The drills were spaced every five inches. Now I believe, I could've fit one more, but oh well... Cleaning, organizing and building at the same time makes you get into this kind of dilemma. ;)

The other measurement across the board, determines how deep into the shelf the drills should sit.
